A 2-m-internal-diameter spherical tank made of 0.5-cm-thick stainless steel (k = 15 W/m·K) is used to store iced water at 0°C in a room at 20°C. The walls of the room are also at 20°C. The outer surface of the tank is black (emissivity ε = 1), and heat transfer between the outer surface of the tank and the surroundings is by natural convection and radiation. Assuming the entire steel tank to be at 0°C and thus the thermal resistance of the tank to be negligible, determine (a) the rate of heat transfer to the iced water in the tank and
(b) the amount of ice at 0°C that melts during a 24-h period. The heat of fusion of water is 333.7 kJ/kg. Now, consider a 2-m internal diameter double- walled spherical tank configuration is used instead to store iced water at 0°C in a room at 20°C. Each wall is 0.5 cm thick, and the 1.5-cm-thick air space between the two walls of the tank is evacuated in order to minimize heat transfer. The surfaces surrounding the evacuated space are polished so that each surface has an emissivity of 0.15. The temperature of the outer wall of the tank is measured to be 20°C. Assuming the inner wall of the steel tank to be at 0°C, determine
(c) the rate of heat transfer to the iced water in the tank for this double-walled tank configuration and
(d) the amount of ice at 0°C that melts during a 24-h period for this double-walled tank configuration.
